Brad the meter is blinking 6% . The owner’s manual said this would of be below 5.5%

well it seems a little dry for osage,,maybe get some input from others,, just me,, I would put somewhere not so dry and sprits it or something,,, the stave the bow was measured from might not have been that dry,,just guessing,,its hard in winter things get so dry,, maybe start a thread,, is my stave too dry and see the response

Selfbowman:
Well I got down to checking my numbers . Cut the  knocks in. Put it on the tree and I pulled th long string to where the tips came almost to brace . Seen area that needed more off. Well that’s where the fine tuning needed to happen on my numbers. I think we missed our weight of fifty pound draw weight. Just the way it feels at floor tiller maybe 40-45

Selfbowman:
Now at fine tuning. I checked thickness at all spots of the limbs if off a hair I put one mark  . If two hairs needed to come off I put 2 marks. You get the program. Ok smart guys laugh! Guys this is real good for tuning your finger calipers. I know there is bowyers on this site that have real good finger calipers.

Selfbowman:
Brad just stay tuned in. I’ve got some places that I need to add a hair.🤨🤠  this going to be a fun experiment. Engineer vs. Builder 🤠🤠
